It solely depends on the context. Using "the" indicates that you are refering to a particular town with some sort of special implication. To illustrate a bit: "I'm almost at home." vs "I'm almost at my home." The latter emphasizes the ownership of the place mentioned. In short: It is correct, but the "the" isn't necessary, unless there is something special about "the" town you're referring to.
